columns of dull unanimated uniformed drogs file down endless corridors;
grey, bald, monotonous, slowly streaming into a large auditorium to see
Big Brother rambling on a 40 foot high crt.  But a strong young blond girl
with a sledgehammer flies down the hallowedways, chased by a squad of sturm
troopers.  She races into the screening room (in slow motion) , whirls around,
and sends the sledgehammer into the crt, which explodes(?) into the gapping
faces of the bedulled audience.

	Not the latest Sci-Fi Flick, but an advertisement for the Apple
Macintosh.  For 60 seconds it certainly grabs your attention.  I saw the end
of it during the 6:00 news 1/19/84, and a 15 second one later in the show.
It's a very glossy add, and might give the cute humor of those Chaplin adds
some competition.
	Of course it is a bit depressing to see our products advertised like
cars - and I hate to think how much R&D the commercial money could have
bought.
